Abstract
Abstract
Child immunization is crucial for reducing the morbidity and mortality associated with vaccine-preventable diseases (VPDs). The program grew over the years, however, progress towards full immunization coverage (FIC) remained slow, with only 44% of children fully immunized in 1992-1993, and 62% in 2015-2016, as reported in the National Family Health Survey. To address this challenge, Government of India launched Routine Immunization intensification drive- Mission Indradhanush (MI) in 2014, with the aim of achieving 90% FIC. The success of MI led to the launch of Intensified Mission Indradhanush (IMI) in 2017, with more intensive planning, monitoring, review, and inter-sectoral partnerships.
